Candidates can have a look at the topics asked in the CLAT 2025 exam below. 

The CLAT 2025 cut-off rank for RMNLU Lucknow is 750 (Expected) for General category.

The CLAT PG 2025 tie will be solved in the following sequence:

• Higher age
• Computerized draw of lots

As per CLAT 2025 analysis from students' feedback, English language section was rated moderate, with 25+ attempts considered good.

The CLAT 2025 cut-off rank for MNLU Mumbai is 600 (Expected) for General category. 

The CLAT 2025 result date is not yet announced. As per past trends, the CLAT 2025 result is expected to be declared in the second week of January. 

The CLAT 2025 cut-off rank for NLSIU Bengaluru is 100 for General category. 

The CLAT 2025 cut-off will be determined by several factors, including:

• Number of candidates: The total number of candidates appearing for the exam will impact the cut-off. A higher number of candidates usually results in a higher cut-off.
• Difficulty level of the exam: If the exam is difficult, the cut-off tends to be lower, while an easier exam may result in a higher cut-off.
• Availability of seats: The number of available seats in various NLUs for different categories plays a significant role in determining the cut-off.
• Category-wise reservation: Different cut-offs are set for different categories (General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.), based on the seat reservation policy.
• Past trends: The previous year's cut-off marks for each NLU and category will also influence the expected cut-off for the current year.

A good score in CLAT 2025 depends on the candidate's target NLUs and category. However, securing around 95-100+ marks is typically considered a good score for general category candidates to secure admission to top NLUs. 

Given the difficulty level of CLAT 2025, around 105 attempts are considered good, with an emphasis on accuracy to minimize negative marking.

"There's complete mismanagement. They have no idea about how many students the centre's going to see or how many people they would need for whisking. Students have prepared for over 2 years and this poor management is making them more nervous. The manadate was getting all the aspirants seated by 1.30 pm which is clearly not happening. Will they extend time for those who entered the centre late because of their poor management?" said a parent at an exam centre in Delhi.

It's been over 30 minutes but we haven't been able to enter yet. I don't think we can even write the exam now. The authorities have even refused to keep our valuables. They have ruined our mental space needed to write the exam peacefully", a student told Careers 360.

Parents are reporting delay in checking formalities. "There are over 1,000 students here but just one person at the gate carrying out the checking formalities. It's causing much delay. They are even threatening us that they would call the police if we don't maintain no order", another parent said.

Since only few minutes are left for the commencement of CLAT 2025 exam, many parents are reporting of mismanagement. "There's so much mismanagement at the CLAT 2025 exam centre at IILM University.
